Milkshape is a good one. I used it to make Space Ship Models for a game called Freelancer.

Maya's great for designing characters, and working with character animation and structure. Another great program is 3-d Studio max, which I think it at version R-8 right now. It can produce high quality scenes and images with virtually no limit.

Of course, neither of these will be cheap. Expect to pay a thousand or so, depending on if you get any bargains.
